Step 1: Materials

To perform this experiment you will need the following items: 1. a candle (any type will do) 2. a tube (I used a 1/4"O.D. 5 32" I.D. copper tube like the one used on http://www.instructables.com/id/BUTTONHOLE-PUZZLE-POCKET-SIZED/) you could also use aluminum, brass, steel, and even glass. 3. a lighter or match 4. Something to hold the tube, it gets hot. (I used a helping hand tool)
